The first action you can take is to write to Minister of Resources Martin Ferguson AND your local parliamentary representative to express your objection. Next, forward this link to your contacts list and ask them to do the same. The more people who write, the better our representatives see how many people are aware of the issue, and interested enough in the outcome to write. People = votes. Even if the pollies don’t agree with your demands, they still understand that you have a vote. By writing to your local rep as well as Mr Ferguson, you also give your local rep power to raise the issues in Parliament. S/he needs your vote too. West Australian local representative’s contact details are on: http://wa.gov.au/

We suggest that you write to the Ministers for REsources, and Environment, but also the other minsters in the list below. The more that have an awareness the better. Their party wants your vote too!
